The New Jersey deadlock was broken
on Wednesday of last week by the elect
ion of Rufus Blodgett, a dark horse, as
the successor of Senator Sewell. Al
though Mr.. Blodgett is Democrat, yet
his election is really a Republican vic
tory, as he was elected by the votes OF
50 Republicans and 3 Democrats. As
the Democrats were in the majority on
Joint ballot the Republicans had no hope
of re-elscting General Sewell, and so cast
their votes in favor of an honest, anti
Doodle Democrat. General Sewell, in
speaking of his successor, says: "He
will make good Senator, and one who
will act upon his own convictions. He
is not the make of man to be bull-dozed
or driven out of them by any man or set
of men within or outside of his own
party. In the election of Mr.. Blodgett,
the Republicans of New Jersey are very
jubilant, for, while they could not elect
one of there own number-the Demo-
Gratis having majority of joint ballot
they know they have not only punished
the principals and accessories of this
fraud. but they have likewise made it
evident that it cannot be practiced in
the future" l..

Your scribe was very much surprised
on glancing in at the door of the Hills
boro Hardware Company last Saturday,
to see every man belonging to the firm,
busy with one or more customers, and
then not enough to 60 around, as
there were men not accustomed to
handling hardware behind the counter,
or at least did not know the mark, as
they were asking Captain" Will or
Mart. the price of the goods they were
looking at. A novel sight to see 80
large store filed with goods, and also
filed with customers eager to buy, and
buying. Most of merchants have to
work hard, cut prices and stretch the ten
sion to make sales. The writer, on in.
quiring, was informed that goods, as
soon as the style changes or old age be-
gins to make its appearance, are marked
down, down, down, so as to insure the
sale, and all new goods are marked at
corresponding low prices. The company
are going to continue their auction sale
of plows on next Saturday, where many
bargains are offered. Any breaking
plow in their stock will be sold at auc.
ton, except the Plow King, known to
all farmers, by the magic name of "Im-
perial." One of the conveniences of the
Imperial" is that points and Landsidea
can be had at any country store, and all
fit. If quick sales and small profits are
an indication of success, the Hillsboro
Hardware Company surely have it.
